Chicken, Lemon, Atkins - Variation Recipe










Ingredients:

1/2 stick butter
12 chicken legs
garlic powder
oregano
salt
pepper
1 lemon, juice of

Instructions:

The original recipe called for 1 chicken quartered, specific amounts of
seasoning and 2 lemons, but we find in our house it works better as listed
above.


In a large baking dish (large enough to hold all the chicken), melt the
butter on top of the stove. Place chicken legs in and season with salt,
pepper, garlic powder, and oregano. Flip chicken and reseason. Bake in 400
degree oven for 30 minutes (top will be golden brown.) Flip, and cook about
10 more minutes. Then turn down the oven to 300, squeeze juice of lemon
over
the chicken, and cook until tender. The meat will practically fall off the
bone.

few
minor changes to the recipe, and here they are.
Hubby gave this a 2 thumbs up.

Some values are ... like sugar on the doughnut, legitimate, desirable, but insufficient, apart from the doughnut itself. We need substance as well as frosting.
